No law enforcement officer should have license to arrest or detain people while unidentified and masked. Everyone okay with ditching due process for "people that don't belong here" is sacrificing their own right to due process. They just don't know it yet. www.boston25news.com/news/local/i...

All these accusations against #PresidentMusk are ridiculous. They're just trying to use the Presidential Records Act to avoid open records requests and subpoenas about DOGE activity until 2034, which is obviously how you know this is all on the up-and-up.

Elon Musk at the inauguration. The video is equally clear.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.

I know every marketing agency wants to turn their assigned "brands into religions", but there are only a few worth the title and one of them is Star Trek

I keep trying to write something eloquent and just being tired. History matters. Philosophy matters. Languages and literature matter. Indigenous studies matter. Arts and humanities and social sciences matter. All of them. Signed, a physicist

The most that can be said about the present moment is that there is disagreement within the Leopards Eating People’s Faces Party about which faces to eat in what order.

WE ARE STILL IN THIS. Wipe your tears. This is the difficult business of hope and defying expectation. We do not give up. We run through the tape. Y’all aren’t allowed to throw in the towel until I do. 😉 Big breath. Locked in. Let’s do this.

trump will be the next reagan in the sense that in 30 years every time you notice some horrible defect in society you'll do some quick research and trace it back to trump

Don't only communicate on your terms. Communicate on your audience's terms, or don't be surprised when they don't hear it. "I went on the right network / podcast / Cul de sac" is a lame purity test. It doesn't work when your opposition's a gas, filling the volume of whatever container it's in

Don't assume maximalist outcomes for the Trump administration. That's a form of psychological surrender. We should attempt to exploit every stumble, failure, and misstep, and there will be stumbles, failures, and missteps.

People are leaving Twitter because it’s not fun anymore and no one is obligated to be on a platform they don’t enjoy. It’s not rocket science.

An abusive narcissist (Buzz) retraumatizes his victim. Victim lashes out and it's a disaster. Enablers apologize for the abuser, ignore victim, start same series of events that gave the victim PTSD & almost got him killed last time. Home Alone 2, a Trump 2024 allegory. Plus, there's Trump.
